California Emission Control Warranty Statement
What is Not Covered Under This Warranty
This warranty does not cover any emission-related part, which malfunctions, fails, or is
damaged due to alterations and/or modifications such as changing, adding, or removing
parts.
When the LSI engine is being serviced under warranty, POLARIS and any of its
authorized dealers shall not be liable for any loss of use of the LSI engine, for any
damage to goods, or loss of time or inconvenience. This limited warranty also does not
apply to any emission-related part which malfunctions, fails, or is damaged due to failure
to follow the maintenance and operating instructions specified in the 2005 and later
Owner’s Manual including:
(a) Improper or inadequate maintenance of any warranted emission-related part
(b) Improper installation, adjustment, or repair of the LSI engine or any warranted
emission-related part unless performed by an authorized dealer
(c) Failure to use recommended fuel as specified in the 2005 and later Owner’s Manual
(d) Repairs and diagnosis performed outside of an authorized dealer
(e) Use of parts which are not authorized by POLARIS
Maintenance Schedule
The LSI engine owner is responsible for having all scheduled inspection and
maintenance services performed at the intervals specified in the 2005 and later Owner’s
Manual and to retain records of these services as having been performed. These records
should be transferred to each subsequent owner of the LSI engine. POLARIS cannot
deny a claim solely because there are no records of scheduled maintenance, however, a
warranty claim may be denied if the failure to perform the scheduled maintenance and
inspection resulted in the failure of a warranted emission-related part. As a minimum, the
LSI engine owner is responsible for the scheduled inspection and maintenance described
below which are based on the procedures described in the Owner’s Manual.
Periodic Maintenance Chart (Emissions-Related)
Inspection, adjustment and lubrication intervals of important components are listed in the
following chart. Maintenance intervals are based upon average riding conditions and a
vehicle speed of approximately 10 mph.
Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust or replace parts as necessary. NOTE: Inspection may
reveal the need for replacement parts. Always use genuine Polaris parts.
J
CAUTION: Due to the nature of these adjustments, it is recommended that service
be performed by an authorized Polaris dealer.
"
Vehicles subjected to severe use (operation in wet or dusty areas, low speed heavy
load operation, prolonged idle) should be inspected and serviced more frequently. For
engine oil, short trip cold weather riding also constitutes severe use. Pay special attention
to oil level. A rise in oil level in cold weather can indicate moisture collecting in the oil
tank. Change oil immediately if oil level begins to rise.
